Children of Robert Ingalls and Elizabeth [?]:

Robert Ingalls, born ca. 1592.

Francis Ingalls, born ca. 1602; died ca. 1672 in Boston, Suffolk County, Massachusetts.

Some sources list Edmund Ingalls's christening as 26 June 1586 in St. Loedegar, Wyberton, Lincolnshire, England and his death as 16 September 1648 in Salem, Essex County, Massachusetts. However, Topographical Dictionary of New England, Emigrants from England to New England, FTM CD504, page 96, lists Skirbeck, Lincolnshire as the English parish origins of Edmond/Edmund Ingalls and on pages 156-157 its says Edmund Ingalls came from Lincolnshire, England, and settled at Lynn [Massachusetts] in 1629; died in 1648, having a wife Ann, and nine children.

On page 2001 from Genealogical Guide to the Early Settlers of America portion of CD504, it notes that Edmund probably was killed by the breaking of bridge at Lynn, Massachusetts. While in the Early New England Settlers, 1600-1800s section it says he drowned in Saugus River in 1648. New England Families #2, FTM CD159, says Edmund Ingalls, immigrant ancestor, was the son of Robert and grandson of Henry Ingalls, and was born at Skirbeck, Lincolnshire, England, about 1598. He came to Salem, Massachusetts, in Governor [John] Endicott's company in 1629, and with his brother, Francis, and four others settled in Lynn [Massachusetts], where they were the first settlers.
